I beg your pardon, but *I'm* not familiar with branches, and I
apply more patches from other people than anybody else.  If git
can be configured to automatically fix whitespaces, then I'll
copy&paste the command and then stop pushing commits that add
whitespace errors.

I'd rather keep that command in the CG somewhere -- I agree that
it doesn't need to be CG 1.1, but maybe a "configuration for
advanced commands" or whatever -- because I periodically switch
computers, and if I just find the command now, I won't have it "on
hand" when I set up another computer.

Cheers,
- Graham
